Hey everyone,
I really need help. Dying Light 2 keeps crashing on me randomly – the game runs perfectly smooth, and then suddenly freezes for 1–2 seconds and just closes to desktop. No error, no crash report, nothing.
Here’s everything I’ve already tried – without success:
What I’ve done so far:
Tried both DirectX 11 and DirectX 12 (with and without Raytracing)
Set graphics to medium/low, turned off Raytracing, DLSS, V-Sync, motion blur, chromatic aberration, SSAO, etc.
Played with and without fullscreen / borderless / capped FPS
Used only the launch options: -dx11, -dx12, -borderless
Ran the game completely clean (no mods, no overlays, no background tools)
Reinstalled GPU drivers (clean install via DDU)
Tried older NVIDIA drivers (v537.x and v546.x)
Deleted config files in Documents\Dying Light 2\out\Settings
Verified the game files via Epic Games
Fully uninstalled and reinstalled the game via Epic
Monitored VRAM usage (RTX 4070, 12 GB – never goes above ~9–10 GB)
Crashes happen even without Ultra Textures or RT
Other games run 100% stable (no crashes at all)
Game version: Latest (Epic Games)
I’m honestly out of ideas. I just want to play the game without it crashing randomly.
Has anyone else had similar issues recently – or fixed this somehow?
Any help would be greatly appreciated 🙏
